Important - Theories sidenotes and reminders (Updated 09/05/08)

1.Sidenote about the bashing of theories

Okay... this sidenote is about the bashing of theories...

People can put alot of effort to explain their theories in here, regardless with or without manga pages as evidence... Please respect these theories and DO NOT come in these threads like ZOMG BULLCRAP, SUCKSS ASS and whatnot...

I'm thinking this forum directory should be renamed "Naruto Manga Hypotheses" with a big warning about flaming and the definition of hypothesis. Bolded. Size 16 font, perhaps. Some folks do go too far w/the whole disproval of a hypothesis, but at times, those that do type the hypothesis either didn't search before they posted or ... *cough*

...forget it -- I don't know.

The directory's name should be like this:

Naruto Manga Hypotheses

with every thread discussion containing these two definitions and a warning on flaming :

Hypothesis: a supposition or proposed explanation made on the basis of limited evidence as a starting point for further investigation

Hypothetical: supposed but not necessarily real or true

Warning: Do not flame.

Everyone should scratch the word theory out of their vocabulary when visiting this part of the forum, definitely read the rules, search for similar hypotheses and learn how to create a decent argument for or against the hypothesis they're replying to without the harsh words, flaming, and curse words. Just my two cents on this subject.

I can say "I got mugged by a fat man, therefore all fat men are muggers". That would be a hypothesis, it would only become a theory when I got some rational proof behind it. That's the reason you always get asked to hypothesise instead of theorise in mathematics & science, at least over here anyway.

Whether its theory or hypothesis, do you still think its allowed to just say
"you dumb*** idiot thats so stupid"
would that still be right either way? It wouldnt.

Do you idiots honestly think that Kishimoto will waste our time showing us a crippled Nagato lying in a hospital bed that Naruto can defeat just by switching off his life support machine?
